It Comes
Down to This! Monster Energy™ Season Championship Friday!
(Bill W) September 28, 2011 – History will be made this Friday night
at the Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, Illinois. The first ever
Monster Energy™ Sprint Car Series presented by the Midwest Open Wheel
Association champion will be crowned at the end of the night!
Jerrod Hull remains on top of the standings, and a solid night could
net him the crown, but Jimmy Hurley lurks in second, and with a great night
could snatch a championship. Robbie Standridge sits third, with Korey
Weyant and Jim Moughan Jr. rounding out the top five. Sixth through tenth
include Chris Urish, AJ Bruns, Joey Moughan, Jordan Goldesberry and Jeremy
Standridge.
The champion will receive his share of the series’ point fund money,
and a ride at the 2012 Chili Bowl sponsored by Indy Race Parts and Bernie
Stuebgen. The top ten in the standings will receive point money sponsored
by series’ sponsor Monster Energy™.
Hull grabbed a win with the series earlier this year in Jacksonville,
as did Terry McCarl (the winner of last Saturday’s event in West Burlington,
Iowa) and Danny Smith. Smith was the most recent winner at the ¼-mile
banked oval, having copped the $4,000 “Shaheen’s Blast from the Past” last
Friday night. JC Bland won the unsanctioned Herb Barlow Memorial two weeks
ago in Jacksonville. It’s anyone’s guess who will sit in Victory Lane this
Friday night!
Grandstands open at 5 p.m., with hot laps scheduled for 6:30 p.m. and
racing to follow. Tickets are just $13 for adults, with 12 and under
admitted FREE! For more information, visit
